With agriculture firmly at the heart of the Northumberland County Show we are proud to showcase some of the finest livestock in the country with sections for cattle, sheep, horses, alpacas, pigs and goats as well as the ever popular rabbits and cavies.
The competitive day culminates in the Grand Parade of livestock in the main area where the coveted Champion of Champions title is awarded.
The competitions aren’t all about livestock – we have our own ‘bake off’ classes in the Competitive Home Crafts marquee and Cumberland & Westmorland wrestling, one of the biggest stick dressing competitions in the country.
If you are interested in joining in the fun you’ll find links below to all the various categories below. Each of the pages will also contain links to the various entry form documents and also previous years results.
POULTRY – Update 04/04/25 Sadly due to the restrictions imposed from Bird Flu, the Poultry won’t be displayed at this year’s show to keep them all safe. We will be holding an EGG SHOW – Details can be found here https://northcountyshow.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Egg-Schedule-2025.docx
